The rental business gets out of hand fast.You start out with 1 machine and in a couple of years you have a parking lot full of equipment.Thats when it becomes very lucrative
I have been watching your videos for a min now as I grow my own dumpster rental business. You Have definitely been an inspiration of mine. Thank you for what you do
You’ve been shuttling a lot of dirt around. At some point it makes more sense to load up a dump trailer and use that to shuttle dirt. Look at excavation contractors. If they can keep the hours off of the machine and on a dump truck, that’s what they do. I’m not trying to be pushy, I’ve just moved some dirt in 66 years.
Oh man, you're not wrong! Everytime I'm out here working, my trailer is being used by my driver running dumpsters! Trust me, I thought about it quite a bit. But gotta get it done when I have time.
Thanks for the video and advice! This business has been a dream of mine for many year! I rent scaffolding, props and cement mixers but I'll get a skid steer soon!"This is motivation!
It is good if you have a newer machine and making payments on it to rent it out. As you said the insurance and the contract is the key. Leftover dirt from driveways and sod jobs I would pile up and use to grow thick hedges. While it can fee strange climbing up dirt piles there is a certain element of fun to it as well. If you screen the dirt you can easily sell loads of dirt to gardeners.
Hey Clayton, great video, what's your preference for attachments (brand) for your Kubota skid steer? I noticed the grapple has a J on the outside of it etched in. Thanks, Brian
Make sure with bush hog rental you charge alot. Because those types of attachments on a skid steer people will destroy it. It'll wear out fast. Definitely don't do mulch heads.
Different for each market. But short answer is "grind" - I know you want something more specific. But I do my best to make sure my business is known by everyone
How do you deal with Insurance ? Looking into this now but seems to be a lot with liability and damage coverage really isn't a thing unless they add it on their own policy.
@@rollingops they look good and b effective at protecting utilities like that man hole I saw. AND u can sell them! And replace them! and sell them. Get them slopes filled, keep up the good work.
Rolling Operations Equipment & Dumpster Rentals Sign in front of the staging area. I would suggest also some kind of Concrete blocks (the big ones) to add support to the front & back of that area to prevent washout issues (if budget allows) And are you going to make another one of those or use the same one for your "transferring/combining" of dumpster loads still or did that idea get put to the back burner for now?
I like the block idea! I do plan to add the transfer dump spot! But I have another piece of dirt I'll be tearing up. And I want to do it behind the building, out of sight. But I need to move some shipping containers around first!
That's what I was gonna say but I didn't know if there was any room appropriated in the back to do that or if it was gonna be used just for storage and staging for your container rentals.. 👍
We typically only rent each machine about once a week. Sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less. BUT I don't advertise them at all hardly. And they have no SEO on my website. So no one that comes to my site is looking for a machine, but a dumpster instead. Most people that rent either drive past my shop and see them, or were on my site for a dumpster and also saw the machines. We primarily make more off the machines for our own use.
@@rollingops Thanks for the reply. I have been considering buying a track loader and mini ex in an attempt to start a rental business. There is another guy on youtube that seems to be successful with 2 skids and mini ex.
The "half" I have isn't that big only 3 bays! The big section is rented to a military contract company that works at the airport. Figure I can't really show their half.🤫

@@rollingops I hear you. Nothing wrong with making do with what you have.
@@rollingops maybe add a dump trailer to the rental fleet.
You're not been pushy my brother, point taken keep the hour off the bobcat

Looks like Jessie Pinkman got into a new type business venture. (Great vids man)
Haha I get that a lot 😅

Wet it down as you lay the layer of dirt . Helps it to compact a lot.
I have been subscribed for a while. Keep up the great content and hard work!
Appreciate you!
I bought a new excavator to rent. Didn't think about it much outside of that. I use the dirt to build a shooting backstop for training.
That's awesome!
Very impressive brother! Congratulations! I just have a question..why did you decide to go for the Kubota and no other brand? Thanks buddy
Screen your top soil and start selling and delivering it.
Hey Clayton, great video, what's your preference for attachments (brand) for your Kubota skid steer? I noticed the grapple has a J on the outside of it etched in. Thanks, Brian
Jenkins! They are insanely well built and over engineered for abuse!
Looks to me like you need a Land Plane on your skid to level that gravel.
I shure do, the list of attachments is adding up!
hard to tell from the video but you might be trapping water on your land when it rains, cant tell slopes, hope this helps. great videos
You're right! Thought about that so we are adding a pipe under the pile while also grading down a slope in the "pool area"

Absolutely!
Yessir
This is the way!
Does Sully know you stole his jacket?
You just need a sign thats like 4’x8’ that says skid steer rental and a number
Yep! I want to lock down a mino ex first so I can include it too!
How did you start a dumpster business? How do you get deals (contracts). Any help would be appreciated.

Does renter put machine under his insurance or you add it on when you rent it? Also is it pricey per month
Jesse Pinkman, is that you?
That's funny, I use to get that a lot ha
Best comment 😂
The slopes of your new pad are going to need to b built up. Add some boulders.
You really want to see some big Ole rocks get moved!

Get them slopes filled, keep up the good work.

Whats been the average days a month your track loader rents?
